About This Item
Dodd, Mead & Company, 1960. First edition. Hard cover. Like New/No dustjacket. Nature has been called âthe effect whose cause is God.â Ulysses became an integral part of this effect, and , in spite of the fact that he considered himself the worldâs top bumblerâoften with plenty of reasons, vehemently vouched for by those left behind in the debrisâhe proved himself indispensable to the Woodland World into which he characteristically stumbled. In the world of man, Ulysses stumbled and bumbled constantly, but in the world of the forest, where he surprisingly became winter caretaker and lone occupant of an isolated huntersâ lodge, he attained dignity, wisdom and assurance as he employed every faculty of his senses and opened his heart to its mysteries and its beautyâand its animal residents. For Ulysses was not alone for long. During that winter in this beloved woods he acquired his amazing wild zoo. This included a pugilistic crippled antelope buck, and injured bird, a lost beagle, a rabbit saved from a weasel and a baleful bobcat! he also acquired a dangerous human enemy. All were a challenge to his young manhood â met with simple courage and unique glory". This is not an x-library copy, as is most commonly offered. A scarce Kjelgaard title, rarely offered in this condition.
